What is a French Door?
French Doors are a sophisticated way of bringing the outdoors inside. Connect waterfront views with your home; enjoy unobstructed gardens, the pool, the hills, or sunsets from any place you desire. Whether an elegant entry door solution or a simple passage door from a bedroom or to the backyard, French doors can fit virtually any application you desire. Vinyl French doors can also be used inside of a home to give a study or office additional privacy. Vinyl is a popular, low-maintenance, and affordable option for French doors. Vinyl French doors provide resistance to water and air infiltration, wind, and outside noise — meaning you’ll have peace of mind when it comes to protecting your home from hurricanes or the noise outside your doors. Exterior vinyl French doors are energy-efficient and can assist in stabilizing your indoor temperature year-round, while possibly lowering your energy bills at the same time.
